“ goodnight Charlie!! “. We were very unlucky to lose this series, we deserved at least a draw. Graham Gooch getting injured turned the series in the favour of the West Indies I think.

I seem to remember reading somewhere that for this live coverage to happen, Sky needed to bring in two cargo planes full of equipment, including generators, fully kitted-out outside broadcast trucks and satellite dishes. It was a first.

Not in this series I don’t think. Definitely the series the following year in England though, which was drawn 2-2 and saw Richards, Greenidge, Marshall and Dujon retire from test cricket. The West Indies certainly underestimated England in this first test though. We were very unlucky, we should have drawn this series at least. Gooch’s injury was the turning point.

Boycott was so right about Hooper throwing his talent away

A great moment for English cricket- but do you have the 1st test from the 1988 home series v West Indies? This was the first time- after a whitewash in the ODIs- that we even managed a draw against them for about 8yrs, with Gatting doing a good job and things looking promising. Then he got sacked, and 4 captains later... Also, this test was a triumph for yr Essex star Gooch- saving the match with 146, helped by Gower's 88*, and 73 in the first innings during a fine 125 opening partnership with Broad.

People don't quite appreciate but this was one of the biggest upsets in sport. England had just lost 4-0 to Australia (it should have been 6-0) and the West Indies were unbeaten for what seemed like decades. But a team full of new players and debutantes won by 8 wickets!

All of the commentators were really hyper-active during this match for some reason. Even Tony Lewis.

Maybe because it was the first time Sky television broadcast an England winter tour live from the Caribbean?? That’s the only reason I can think of.

@@mrkipling2201 I was thinking the same thing. Also it was the start of a potentially exciting new decade, the 1990s. I remember how excited and optimistic people were at that time, although I was only 10 years old.

@@ajs41 same here. We only used to get very brief highlights of England’s winter tours. Then we started getting it live on Sky one for the 1990 West Indies tour. Cricket broadcasting was changing!!
